Found this here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/49261
Sounds to me like you had updated the kernel without rebooting.
So, did you do a
apt-get update && apt-get upgradeand a reboot if needed before running the 1.5.7 installer? This is usually a good idea because the installer scripts will do this in the background anyway and take much longer if there are updates to do and some of those might need user interaction which the FOG installer is not doing.Beside that I highly recommend you to use the current
dev-branch(1.5.7.2) instead of 1.5.7 because we found an issue in the latest stable version which is fixed in the dev version already. See information here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/13566/lost-images -
So far I think my Linux host has corruption after an update it fails to boot. I have to go back and select the old Linux kernel just to boot.
I am now in the process of rebuilding fog. I have imported my database back and have changed IPs, hostnames and password based on the wiki.
I am now running 1.5.7.2 and now so far so good after lots and lots of troubleshooting.

@quinniedid Sad to hear that you had a lot of work and trouble with this but sometimes it’s just good to redo the whole lot to get rid of old issues. Hope you have moved forward from Ubuntu 16.04 as well!
